You’re here because

You love each other, but lately something big has been putting strain on your relationship.

Sure, you’ve had arguments in the past (what couple hasn’t?), but you’ve always been able to work through them and things have been pretty good. This time, the same argument is on repeat without getting any closer to a resolution.

You’ve got some ideas on what’s going on, but nothing you try seems to work. It’s hard to keep putting yourself out there.

You feel misunderstood, frustrated, and exhausted. It’s like you’re running in circles.

  • Maybe you’re overwhelmed in the aftermath of an affair in your marriage. Your world’s turned upside down. It seems like every conversation comes back to the affair. Trust is broken and you don’t know how to get it back. Both of you want to work through this, but it’s hard to figure out where to begin.

  • Or perhaps you’re worried about your relationship taking a backseat to the new baby. Whether you’re expecting or have given birth within the past two years, it feels like everything is focused on the baby. When different opinions come up, you’re struggling to find common ground. You want to reach a compromise and create a plan to connect back to you as a couple, not just parents.

  • You could be feeling tense about a lingering disagreement in your engagement or new marriage. Whether you’re engaged or have gotten married in the last two years, you’re excited about the commitment and also know you need to fully address the outstanding conflict. Maybe it’s an issue with your in-laws or differing views on how to manage money. You want to settle it while identifying and dealing with any other obstacles, so you can start your marriage off right.

Hey. I’m Lydia.

I believe conflict can spark positive relationship transformation.

Resolving the argument you keep having will be our starting point (or spark), but we’re not going to stop there. Using research and evidence-based approaches personalized for your relationship, I’ll help you get to the core of what’s happening between you. 

Marriage counseling with me starts with identifying not just your goals as a couple, but also your goals as an individual. We’ll agree on these at the beginning of our work. I’ll challenge you each to own your part and together we’ll work toward achieving the results you desire.
